A deterministic model for the occurrence and dynamics of multiple mutations in hierarchically organized tissues

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We model a general, hierarchically organized tissue by a multi compartment approach, allowing any number of mutations within a cell. We derive closed solutions for the deterministic clonal dynamics and the reproductive capacity of single clones. Our results hold for the average dynamics in a hierarchical tissue characterized by an arbitrary combination of proliferation parameters.
